Ooh, doctor, my eyes have seen the years
And the slow parade of tears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me, if you can
Doctor my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise
To leave them open for so long?
'Cause I have wandered through this world
And as each moment has unfurled
I’ve been waiting to awaken from these dreams
People go just where they will
I never noticed them until
I got this feeling that it’s later than it seems
Doctor my eyes
Tell me what they see?
I hear their cries
Just say if it’s too late for me
Doctor my eyes
Tell me what you see?
I hear their cries
Just say if it’s too late for me
Doctor my eyes
Cannot see the sky
Is this the price
For having learned how not to cry?
Ooh, won’t you help me understand?
Ooh, I wanna understand
Ooh, I wanna understand
Ooh, oh, doctor, doctor help me, oh
Ooh, I can hear the people crying, ooh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, help me understand
Ooh, help me understand
Ooh
